Review on Toshiba MQ01ABF050 500GB 2.5" Internal Hard Drive - Enhanced SEO by Makoto Arihori ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The worst purchase in my life, dont repeat my mistake

It can be used as a "Storage", store a large number of files there or use it for the first time, then buy some kind of SSD and set it as the main one, and put the Toshiba HDD in place of the DVD drive, if possible, on some laptops stands in place of the DVD stub. Pros below: Advantages . What are we talking about? There is not a single positive quality in this HDD, except for 500GB for ~3k. Its cons: So-so . The first time I bought a laptop with this HDD, it worked fine for several days, but then it began to make unpleasant sounds, like a creak, not loudly, but noticeably. Second, a very long system boot time ~ 8 seconds or more than 10 (win10), as well as a long response time to a request when working with several programs. And it’s not suitable for games at all, in the same CS: GO there are barely noticeable friezes, and with GTA V this HDD is very bad, the textures do not have time to load while driving, friezes due to the fact that the disk is loaded under ~ 100% and the response time is very low. With programs for editing / editor, too, not everything is so smooth. I recommend replacing it with an SSD.
